Image is everything

In order for brand owners to compete in certain highly competitive markets – wine, beauty, specialty foods – image is everything. And the LABELMesh screens for label printing process provides effects that can bring a label to another level.

Screen printing allows for printing on substrates of any shape, thickness, or size. It also allows for printing front and backside of a clear label to ensure that lettering shines through, and clear labels on dark-colored bottles or tubes are often printed with screen white. Also, a greater thickness of the ink can be applied to the substrate than is possible with other printing techniques, allowing for the creation of effects such as tactile and Braille, glitter, scratch offs and raised text. Also, gold and silver screen inks are often used in lieu of foil.

LABELMesh : Rotary (Silk) Screens for Label Printing

A UPrint LABELMesh Rotary Silk Screen for label printing is a Mesh screen electroformed from nickel. A dimensional repeat precision up to 0.01 mm provides you a more economical solution, while keeping excellent print quality. Typical applications are found in label printing to give that high-end look that no other process can deliver, for example when a true “no label” look is desired. Other applications where you can use rotary screen are for example printing tactile (braille), combination varnishes, scent, metallic, high opacity white and color shifting effects.

High Precision End Rings

High precision auxilaries contribute to the perfect label print result. Therefore UPrint Technologies supplies end rings that have a high dimensional precision of TIR of +/- 0.0005″. Because the repeat size of the end ring is laser engraved, the end ring is easy to track.

Robust Gear Wheels

Furthermore, the highly precise gear wheels are made from robust bakelite. This sturdy material will last longer compared to glass fibre, traditionally used to manufacture gear wheels.
